My Brewtus II is over pressurized?

Hello gurus, Turned on my machine today and the pressure builds up but it won't stop at 1.2 bar which is my normal setting. Made a little video before I turned off the machine. Sounds like a valve is letting steam out to avoid a disaster... https://youtu.be/RVbnnVs65rY Need advice. Help!! I'm

I like the Jaeger from Chris’ Coffee but they are hit and miss on longevity. One will last for years, and the next might fail in 90 days. The ones from WLL are simple enough and cheaper; I’d just keep an extra on hand if you go that route. They last a year or two. The install on the OEM ones

Re: My Brewtus II is over pressurized?

Re: My Brewtus II is over pressurized?

Probably your pressurestat has stuck and is sending power to the steam boiler when it shouldn’t. The hissing is the over pressure relief on top of the boiler, preventing you from having a bomb on your countertop. There are lots of previous threads on this, and you can bypass it or reverse it

Thank you for your help and quick response. I ordered the part I linked to. Hope I'm up and running soon again :) On Sat, Apr 14, 2018 at 8:10 PM, Ben McCafferty wrote: > That looks correct to me, but I’d compare voltage rating etc with the one > you have now. > Here is the
